SL Video: "The Drax Files: World Makers - Episode 38: Eboni Khan "

By Draxtor Despress on June 8, "'My income from my Second Life sales enabled me to raise my son after I
was laid off during the recession!' says fashion designer Eboni Khan who
started her Hucci brand of virtual female clothing over 10 years ago: 'I think SL has helped many single mothers to become independent
business owners that way. The barrier of entry is low and - if you are
good and work hard - you can immediately build up an international
customer base!'

"And as one may expect - since Eboni Khan is
mostly known for making high quality shoes and sexy dresses - she is
unapologetic when it comes to the often heard criticism that VR is
nothing more than escapism: 'Everyone needs a bit of escapism when life
is hard. There is absolutely nothing wrong with living a glorious
fantasy life online!'

"A college graduate who grew up in a middle
class family surrounded by academics, Eboni Khan credits her
interactions in Second Life for becoming a more tolerant person: 'You
meet people from all walks of life and all age groups. It forces you to
question your own assumptions about people who are different from you,
every day. We become more open rather than closed in an environment like
this!'"
